Vitamin D Deficiency Among Female University Students (18 to 25 years) in Spring
Öz: Introduction: In this study, the laboratory results of femaleuniversity students whose vitamin D levels were requestedwere reviewed. Thus, it was aimed to determine the levels ofvitamin D, as well as to classify it as deficiency, insufficiency,normal and preferred.Methods: The vitamin D levels of 92 female universitystudents between the ages of 18 and 25 years who admittedto an outpatient clinic between April and May 2017 wereretrospectively evaluated. Vitamin D levels were classifiedaccording to the criteria of the Endocrine Society. Vitamin Ddeficiency was accepted in individuals with vitamin D levelsbelow 20 ng/mL. Spearman’s correlation test was used forstatistical analysis. P<0.05 was considered significant.Results: The mean 25-hidroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] level was17.32±7.18 ng/mL. The frequency of deficiency, insufficiency,normal and desired 25(OH)D levels were 78.3% (72), 14.1% (13),6.5% (6) and 1.1% (1), respectively.Conclusion: In this retrospective study in female universitystudents, vitamin D deficiency was found to be frequent. Inaddition to other trainings, awareness raising and educationare compulsory to exclude possible risks of vitamin Ddeficiency. Additionally, the development of health policies forvitamin D supplementation without laboratory examinationin this population would prevent possible skeletal and extraskeletalproblems.

Kadın Üniversite Öğrencilerinde Hastalık Riski Düzeyinde Vitamin D Eksikliği
Öz: Amaç: Bu araştırmada, vitamin D düzeyi istenen kadın üniversite öğrencilerinin laboratuvar sonuçları gözden geçirilmiştir. Böylece vitamin D düzeylerini belirlemek, ayrıca eksiklik, yetersizlik, normal ve tercih edilen düzey olarak sınıflandırmak amaçlanmıştır. Yöntemler: Bu araştırmaya Nisan ve Mayıs 2017 tarihleri arasında polikliniğe başvuran 18-25 yaş arası 92 kadın üniversite öğrencilerinin vitamin D düzeyleri üzerinde retrospektif olarak yapıldı. Vitamin D düzeyleri Endokrin Topluluğu’nun önerilerine göre sınıflandırıldı. Vitamin D düzeyi 20 ng/mL’nin altında olan bireylerde vitamin D eksikliği varlığı kabul edildi. İstatistiksel analiz için Spearman korelasyon testi kullanıldı. P<0,05 anlamlı olarak kabul edildi. Bulgular: 25-hidroksivitamin D [25(OH)D] seviyesi ortalama 17,32±7,18 ng/mL idi. Eksik, yetersiz, normal ve arzu edilen 25(OH)D düzeyi oranları sırasıyla %78,3 (72), %14,1 (13), %6,5 (6) ve %1,1 (1) saptandı. Sonuç: Kadın üniversite öğrencilerinde yürüttüğümüz bu retrospektif çalışmada; hastalık oluşturma riski düzeyinde olan vitamin D eksikliğinin sık olduğu görüldü. Diğer eğitimlerin yanı sıra D vitamini eksikliğinin olası risklerini dışlamak için bilinçlendirme ve eğitim zorunludur. Ayrıca, bu popülasyonda laboratuvar incelemesi olmaksızın gerekli D vitamini takviyesi için sağlık politikalarının geliştirilmesi olası iskelet ve iskelet dışı problemleri önleyecektir.
